SPIV brothers who prey on vulnerable pensioners trousered almost ­£1million last year, we can reveal.

The pair behind disgraced alarm firm SAS have been shut down again after launching Solar Energy Savings (SES), a company selling solar panels.

But watchdogs moved too late to stop David Diaz, 28, paying himself £512,000 last year while his brother Ludovic Black, 31, took home £441,000.

Their huge paydays can be revealed days after the government shut down the latest rogue firm linked to them.

They had already shut down the pair’s previous firm SAS Alarms, after a series of Sunday Mail investigations that led to them being convicted in court.

The Insolvency Service have moved against SES, where sales teams used the same high-pressure tactics to rack up a £50million turnover ­flogging solar panels.

Their investigator Scott Crighton also nailed the lie that the brothers, from Milton, ­Glasgow, were nothing to do with SES.

He said: “SES persistently and deliberately flouted both ­statutory regulations and ­industry standard selling ­practices in order to generate sales.”

We can also reveal that ­Bentley-driving Diaz lives in a £440,000 mansion in ­Kilsyth, Stirlingshire, ­surrounded by security ­cameras.

He was first exposed by the Sunday Mail three years ago while running rogue alarm firm SAS Fire & Security Systems, who conned ­elderly customers. They were also shut down by the Government.

During the SES probe, the Government uncovered a series of payments made to the brothers and their crony Gary McVey, 30. Over the past 16 months, the combined payments made to the trio through a network of firms totalled £1.37million.

SES bank accounts were frozen during the probe which followed the trio’s ­conviction at Harrow Crown Court in June of unfair commercial practices after a 10-week trial.
